Description
In a near-future New Orleans, Emma Miller—married and the mother of a five-year-old—finds her carefully ordered life unraveling as an obsession takes hold and a dangerous love triangle begins to tighten. What starts as longing and fascination turns increasingly volatile, forcing Emma to confront the costs of desire, the fragility of family, and the ways love can become a form of possession. Valerie Martin’s sharp, provocative storytelling blends psychological intensity with a vivid sense of place, building suspense through intimate choices rather than spectacle. At its core, this novel explores betrayal, moral compromise, and the thin line between devotion and destruction.
